Description
Reaching around 60 cm tall, has small alternate leaves resembling those of the mimosa tree, disposed in two ranges. The leaves are large at the
tip and smaller towards the petiole. When touched, the leaves fold in automatically. Flowers are greenish white, minute and appear at axiles of
the leaves, as well as the seed capsules. Numerous small green-red fruits, round and smooth, are found along the underside of the stems, which
are erect and red.
